Turner Program Services and DIC Entertainment produced the series, which aired on TBS from September 15, 1990 through December 5, 1992. Hanna-Barbera and Turner Program Services produced a successor series, The New Adventures of Captain Planet, which aired from September 11, 1993 until May 11, 1996. Both series are still in syndication today. The program is an example of edutainment that promotes environmental awareness. Mother Nature Network began streaming episodes and previously unseen material of Captain Planet and the Planeteers on its website in February 2009. With Pyle's help, the Planeteer Movement was founded in September 2010 as a way for show fans to interact and continue to integrate the show's messages into their lives as real-life Planeteers.
